Maybe, but I got your point anyway, and I do agree with it! It's just that I live in a suburb which has a long history of traffic stops interacting with the whole "driving while black" problem, so I get touchy! No harm no foul.

Great issue as always, thanks! But I'm not sure civil rights activists would agree entirely with you that it is "sad" news that traffic stops are way down - I do recall that people of color are disproportionately pulled over for such stops. Trade-offs, trade-offs! Why can't everything be 100% bad or 100% good? (grin)

Fair, "sad news that traffic violence is up" would have perhaps been more artful!
